Revel Salon 2 in Milwaukee area


Hi,

I am a newbie to hi fi. It always has been a dream of mine to own an ultimate stereo audio system. I have a struggle with chosing a speaker system. My electronics will be Mcintosh.

I auditioned B&W 802 diamonds (THE latest version) and LOVED them. BUT a lot of respected audiophiles recommend Revel Studio 2's or Salon 2's - in that price range.

I found ONLY one Revel dealer in Milwaukee and Chicago area who displayed Ultima2. I went to the dealer and he had a pair of used Studio 2's for audition. It turned out to be a very mediocre experience. I have a feeling it may have been from a bad setup.

Are there any Audiogon member in Milwaukee area who are passionate enough to share his/her Salon 2's for listening session?

Very much appreciated for the conseideration.

You would be doing yourself a great disservice if you didn't attend the Rocky Mountain Audio Fest next month audiofest.net.

you can listen to all the big names and a lot of smaller lesser know products. That way your dream of owning a fine system can be based in the reality of having listened to it first.

A cheap event to get to: fly Frontier to Denver and $30 round trip to the hotel. Weekend rates at the Marriott or other close by hotels. A real eye opener for a lot of audiophiles.

I ran into a guy there who was in tears because he had purchased a system prior to coming to the show and he realized there was so much out there that was better and perhaps cheaper then what he had bought.

Check it out.
